Giving Feels Good

One of our customers did an amazing thing recently.

The Artcliff Diner in Vineyard Haven purchased 500 pounds of fresh winter vegetables and donated them all to the Martha’s Vineyard Boys & Girls Club in Edgartown, so parents could pick up some free produce along with their kids at the end of the day.

The veggies were a big hit. After one day, all the butternut squash was gone. By the next night, most of the turnips, carrots and potatoes had also found new homes — this is all that was left for the following week:

The Boys & Girls Club serves hundreds of families from all over Martha’s Vineyard, where one in four school-age kids is at risk of not having enough to eat. If you’d like to make a similar donation of healthy, fresh farm-raised food, please let us know. We’re always happy to help, because we know how good it feels to share the bounty.
